Hi, I'm a Mechanical Engineer from Technological University of Pereira.
Currently living in Medellín,
I like running, dancing, listening music and reading books!
I recently returned from a year long travel adventure on Mexico, where I could interact with people from different countries and cultures.
Unfortunately, right now I am not allowed to host anyone on my apartment, but if you are in the city for few day, I could invite you for al walk for the best places on the city, to drink somenthig or tu run some sunday at the morning!!
I'm happy to meet and help new people.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
After a year living in Mexico, traveling for all of the states, interacting with people from differents cultures and being helped for mexicans. I promised my self I will return the favor. Couchsurfing is a good way to learn from foreign people, to travel cheap and to interact and stay coneted with the world.

Music, Movies, and Books
I like almost all genres while they are well made. Applies to music, books and movies.
My favorite writer is Gabriel García Márquez and my favorite book "Love in the time of cholera." I also like José Saramago, Julio Cortázar, Agatha Christ, Umberto Eco, Marguerite Yourcenar, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and, of course, Bram Stoker.
With the movies, every year I look for Oscar-nominated films. And I try, although I know that I am not an expert in audiovisual sciences, to choose who will win each prize. By the way, my favorite movie is "The Fight Club".
For music, I listen from classic rock to reggaeton, it depends on the moment and the mood. My favorite band is the Beatles, but you'll be surprised what you can find on my playlist haha!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Incredible things are everywhere and they happen all the time if you are a good observer. I can rescue the following among an infinity:
Climb a pyramid of more than 2000 years, hug a kangaroo, travel without planning, trust the spirit of the good people who are on the road, eat tacos, dive with sharks, meet person lovely.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Depending on the day, I can offer you a walk through the city, a soda, a dinner ... I can show you the real Medellín, a lovely city very different from the one shown in the movies and series.
I can also invite you to run if you feel uplifted. Running in the night city is very nice and running on Sunday mornings is even better. You choose!
